Hello! I've read your concerns and feel sorry for your father. Lung Cancers commonly spreads to the bones -- which might be the cause of pain of your father. Stage IV lung cancers are treated by chemotherapy, to slow down and control the spread. Other symptoms such as pain will be relieved by analgesics. Weight loss and weakness is part and parcel of symptoms of cancer, your oncologist can give your prescription for dietary supplements.
